A camshaft essay.

So my reason for posting was simly to point out that -

- Unless you run aftermarket slugs with valve reliefs, and
- buy a multi key way timng chain so thst you can degree the camshaft correctly

...the commercial grinds are a compromise so that we can run more duration without valve clash.


I'll admit to being a ***** about it...but I get little tired of being told running carbs is a mistake.....when half the issue is about retarded ICL installation creating **** cylinder pressure.

Just thought people should know the reasons are not all intake related. Chris from Modern Muscle has already confirmed there's no way around this without changing slugs on this forum....I guess people missed it.......

Maybe Chris will step up and confirm it again-


Please understand that with factory slugs...there's no other option option for these guys but to supply a a grind on a retarded ICL.
